    The objective of this study was to evaluate the erosive effect of effervescent vitamin supplements on enamel microhardness over time, in vitro. Materials and Methods: The study was experimental, using 50 bovine teeth, divided into five groups based on the effervescent vitamin supplements Redoxon, Supradyn, and Berocca Plus, as well as a positive control (carbonated beverage Coca-Cola) and a negative control (distilled water). Enamel microhardness was assessed in vitro using the Vickers test before exposure, at 1 minute, and at 10 minutes. Data analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA and paired T-tests. Results: A significant reduction in initial enamel microhardness was observed at 1 minute and at 10 minutes of exposure (p ≤ 0.05) for Redoxon (323.83 / 322.997 / 280.78 Kg/mm²), Supradyn (343.53 / 342.72 / 306.84 Kg/mm²), and Berocca Plus (331.15 / 329.63 / 286.57 Kg/mm²). Conclusions: The erosive effect of the effervescent vitamin supplements increased with exposure time, leading to a significant reduction in enamel microhardness.
